Are you a “Big Green Iron” Fan?” I certainly am, and have been since the mid-60’s!!!.... and for sale here is a custom model from my "Euclid Collection” comprising: - 1 x Euclid 71-70 Loader (Euclid version of Terex Loader).
The 72-71 was a Terex
designed machine. It was the smaller brother to an earlier Euclid designed prototype,
the Euclid 71-80 (later to become the Terex production model 72-81). Euclid had begun
preparatory designs on a big wheel loader as far back as 1965.with experimental
machines built between 1966 and 1967. Following successful trials, Euclid intended to enter full
production as the model 72-80, but following GM’s renaming of the Euclid
earthmoving division to Terex in 1968, the decision was made to keep the
designation all in the “1” family and the 72-80 became the 72-81. The new 72-81
wheel loader was officially introduced to the public in February 1969.
